1 Wiigwaasi-Jiimaan Birch Bark Canoe Building and Anishinaabemowin Immersion on Nagaajiwanaang Reservation 2010
2 The Wiigwaasi-Jiimaan Project Sponsored by the Fond du Lac Cultural Center and Museum funded by the Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa and the Administration to Native Americans (ANA), the birch bark canoe project teaches this traditional craft while promoting language preservation in a learn while doing immersion setting
3 Petrasavodsk Jiimaan In 2007 a team of community members built a jiimaan in Petrasavodsk, Russia sponsored by Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa for a sister city cultural boat building symposium
4 Washington D.C. Jiimaan A collaboration between the Fond du Lac Cultural Center and Museum and the National Museum of the American Indian in 2008 built a Jiimaan on-site in Washington D.C.
5 2010 Jiimaan Team Staff, Artists, Resource Experts Jeff Savage Marvin Defoe Dave Niib Aubid Kyra Paitrick Lisa Shabaiash Marilyn Carpenter Phil Savage Rick Defoe Bill Howes Charlie Nahgahnab Participants Darryl Porter Joe Rodaks Vern Zacher Jr. Tim Diver Jamie Petite Chris Ojibway Jerald Jenkins Brett Dufault Joe Fairbanks Supporting family members and volunteers
6 Primary project goals were Anishinaabemowin Implement a language preservation project that will contribute to the fluency, knowledge, and comfort using the Ojibwe language Create community members skilled in our cultural arts who then can be the future teachers and mentors
7 Gidinawemaaganinaanig (all our relatives) Intergenerational teaching and participation provides the foundation for our culture and was a cornerstone of our project
8 Jiimaan basics Based upon an illustration by Tara Prindle copyright 2000
9 Biindakoojigewin At appropriate times during the Wiigwaasi- Jiimaan project, asemaa (tobacco) was offered following the Anishinaabe tradition
10 Obishagaakobidoon Wiigob (he peels the inner bark of the Wiigobiin (inner basswood bark) is peeled to make Anishinaabe universal twine basswood)
11 Odoozhitoonaawaa Jiimaanike- Wigamig (they build the canoe making house) Maananoons (ironwood/hop hornbeam) poles are gathered and used for the jiimaanikewigwaming (canoe making house)
12 Odoozhitoonaawaa Jiimaanike-Wigamig (they build the canoe making house) Traditionally, wiigobiin (inner basswood bark) is used to tie the maananoons (ironwood/hop horn beam) poles together
13 Onaadinaawaa wadabiin (they go get spruce root) Gawaandag (black spruce) grows in wet areas Wadabiin (spruce roots) are gathered for sewing and lashing Ideal roots are the width of a finger
14 Ogiishkizhaanaawaan (they cut and trim the roots) Wadabiig (spruce roots) Ondewan (the roots are boiling) to loosen the bark to make it easier to peel from the woody center that is used for lashing the canoe
15 Daashkibijigewin (root splitting) to make lashing for all sewing needs in the construction of the canoe Split roots should have one flat side Gashkoonowinan (lashing) keeping moist until use Wadabiin (spruce roots)
16 Aabadizo wenizhishid giizhik (the fine cedar is used) Cutting and splitting the gizhik (cedar) for waaginaag (canoe ribs), bimikwaanag (gunnels), and apisidaaganag (slats) Good canoe cedar is difficult to find, year old cedar with no knots is ideal
17 Splitting the giizhik (cedar) Following the grain maximizes the flexibility of the wood for shaping it into the various canoe parts Daashkiga ige (he splits)
18 Rough shaping the waaginaag (canoe ribs) with a mookojigan (draw knife) Mookodaaso (she whittles)
19 Nabagisagoonsikewin Odoozhi aawaan apisidaaganag (they make cedar sheathing) for canoe lining (board-making)
20 Anishinaabemowin Immersion Language transmits culture. Interwoven in the language are the lore, legends, values and the cultural practices of the Ojibwe. Canoe building skills and the language go hand in hand in maintaining each other.
21 Maniwiigwaase (s/he gathers birch bark) Finding canoe bark trees takes a lot of time and effort year old trees are needed The bark must be be thick, flexible and have small horizontal lines When trees are peeled in the proper season it does not kill the tree
22 Bishagaakobijigewag (they are peeling birch bark) Good canoe trees are increasingly difficult to find due to many factors in modern times
23 One good canoe birch bark tree peeled in the proper season can yield enough bark for a complete canoe. Bark is rolled up inside out Gwayako-didibinan! (Roll it up correctly!)
24 Jiimaanike-Wigamig (the canoe building site) A level spot is prepared of sand for laying out the canoe The level spot keeps the bark on the bottom of the jiimaan (canoe) even while forming the canoe
25 Anishinaabemowin Anishinaabemowin language CD s were developed and played during travel and for participant use Language was also available in visual and audio formats around the jiimaanikewigwaming (canoe making house)
26 Wiigwaasi-Gashkigwaasowin Migoosan (awls) are used to hold sheets of bark together in preparation for sewing Wadabiin (spruce roots) are used for sewing the sheets of bark. The sewn together birch bark sheet will form the outer shell of the canoe. (birchbark sewing)
27 Onaakosijigewin (forming frame making) The onaakosijigan (forming frame) is cut from boards or a modern plywood pattern
28 Onaakosijigan gaye asiniig After the bark is sewn together inside out, the onaakosijigan (forming frame) is positioned and weighed down with asiniig (rocks) to keep the bark stationary (frame and rocks)
29 Maananoons (ironwood) Forming stakes are made of maananoons (ironwood/hop hornbeam) to hold and shape the bark around the pattern into it s canoe shape
30 Onaakosijigewag (they use frame and stakes to bend the canoe into the proper shape) Gezhaagamideg (warm water) keeps the bark flexible while shaping the bark up around the pattern Aatwaakosiziganag (framing stakes) bend and hold the bark into its canoe shape
31 Bimikwaanike (he forms gunnels) Drawing bimikwaanag (gunnels) on the log Cutting bimikwaanag (gunnels) out of log
32 Cut and shaped bimikwaanag (gunnels ) ready for lashing onto the bark to form the canoe shape Bimikwaanike (he forms gunnels)
33 Bimikwaanag (gunnels) are the longest pieces of giizhik (cedar) in the canoe Bimikwaanike (s/he forms gunnels) Once the flattened side is formed with the draw knife, then the log is split
34 Bimikwaanag (gunnels) Bimikwaanag (gunnels) ends are split, steam heated, and bent to make the curved ends of the canoe
35 Bimikwaanag (gunnels) Bimikwaanag (gunnels) are shaped to fit the onaakosijigan (forming frame) and prepared to be sewn to the birch bark to form the top edges of the canoe
36 Positioning the bimikwaanag (gunnels) to be sewn in place Framing stakes are tied and secured in place to stabilize the canoe form while the gashkoonowinan (lashings) are being done Bimikwaanag (gunnels)
37 Bimikwaanag (gunnels) are being lashed with wadabiin (spruce roots) Gashkoonowin (lashing) The bark is trimmed for shaping canoe end
38 Gashkoonowin (lashing) The bark is placed between the two gunnels and lashed securely with wadabiin (spruce roots)
39 Gashkoonowin (lashing) Four generations of canoe lashers. Joanne Olson helps granddaughter Kyra and great-grand niece lash gunnels
40 After bimikwaanag (gunnels) are lashed to the bark, then the final sewing is done on the side panels and end pieces
41 Apikaanikaanan (temporary thwarts) Apikaanikaanan (temporary thwarts) are crafted to be fitted for keeping the canoe in its shape while sheathing and ribs are prepared for fitting
42 Bashkinede igan (steamer) is used to heat and moisten the cedar for bending the waagaadoowaatig (end pieces) and waaginaag (ribs) Baashkinede igan (steamer)
43 Waagaadoowaatigoog Steamed and bent giizhik (cedar) fortifies and strengthens the canoe ends (end pieces)

50 Ogashkigwaadaan (s/he sews it) The waagaadoowaatig (end piece) is being fitted and sewn
51 Ogashkigwaadaan (he sews it) The waagaadoowaatig (end piece) is sewn into the canoe with a different stitch than the stitching used to sew bark together
52 Apikanike (S/he makes permanent thwarts) Each apikan (thwart) must be individually handcrafted and measured to fit.
53 Apikanike (S/he makes permanent thwarts) Different types of canoes (ricing canoe, traveling canoe) have different thwart placements.
54 Apikanike (S/he makes permanent thwarts) Apakanag (thwarts) are fitted into slots that have been made in the inner bimikwaanag (gunnels) They are then drilled, and lashed to gunnels

56 Niigaan/Ishkweyaang (front/back) After the waagaadoowaatigoog gaye bimikwaanan (end pieces and gunnels) are lashed to the canoe, they are tied and secured together to form the niigan/ishkweyaang (front/back) of the canoe
57 Ozhiitaawin (getting ready for ) Temporary sheathing is placed in bottom of canoe for rib shaping Apikwaanag (thwarts) are tied to side stakes to keep canoe the height it will be when finished while fitting the ribs
58 Waaginaa (canoe rib) Rib wood has been soaked for several days to prepare it for steaming and fitting into canoe Ribs are sized according to placement in canoe
59 Waaginaa (canoe rib) Ribs are numbered and then steamed
60 Waaginaa (canoe rib) During waaginaa (canoe rib) fitting process, gezhaagamideg (hot water) is poured on bark to keep it flexible and prevent tearing Ribs are fitted and placed while steaming hot
61 Waaginaa (canoe rib) It takes two hands and two feet to fit ribs They are secured in place until they dry
62 Waaginaa (canoe rib) Progression of rib placement from center to ends
63 Waaginaa (canoe rib) Boards are inserted and secured to hold waaginaag (ribs) in their places while drying to their desired shape

80 Naajibigiwe (s/he harvests spruce pitch) A lot of time is spent searching for dried bigiw (spruce pitch) because few trees seep pitch in sufficient amounts Bigiw is gathered by scraping it into a container from where it has dried on the tree
81 Bigiwikewag (they make pitch) Bigiw (pitch) is melted and strained to remove pieces of bark and other impurities
82 Bigiwikewag (they make pitch) Charcoal is crushed and sifted Mix charcoal with pitch Mix in waawaashkeshi bimide (deer fat) for flexibility
83 Bigiw (pitch) A small test piece of birch bark is dipped in the processed bigiw (pitch) and cooled in cold water The pitched bark is bent to test for flexibility, pitch should not crack when slightly bent
84 Jiimaan The word Jiimaan comes from the Ojibwe root word ojiim to kiss. Jiimaan are tested for holes and imperfections by putting your lips to the bark inhaling or exhaling to search for small holes in the bark needing to be pitched
85 The processed bigiw (pitch) is heated and the seams, holes, or any naturally occurring imperfections in the bark are pitched to make them waterproof Bigiw (pitch)
86 Abwiikewag (they make a paddle) Different types of woods can be used to make abwiin (paddles) Cedar makes a light abwi (paddle), but birch makes a strong one
